COIN HEIST

The last place you’d expect to find a team of criminals is at a prestigious Philadelphia prep school. But on a class trip to the U.S. Mint—which prints a million new coins every 30 minutes—an overlooked security flaw becomes far too tempting for a small group of students to ignore. United by dire circumstances, these unlikely allies—the slacker, the nerd, the athlete, and the “perfect” student—band together to attempt the impossible: rob the U.S. Mint. The diverse crew is forced to confront their true beliefs about each other and themselves as they do the wrong thing for the right reasons. Told from the revolving perspectives of four teens, each with their own motive for committing a crime that could change all of their lives for the better—that is, if they can pull it off.
This YA novel written by Elisa Ludwig definitely goes into my list of brilliantly told books you literally can’t put down. When Adaptive Studios reached out to me and asked if I can design a poster based off their new YA novel to be released this month, I said yes without a second thought. A YA thriller with a kind of story like Breakfast Club meets Ocean’s 11 sounds appealing enough! I finished the book in two consecutive nights, which is a huge accomplishment for me because: a) I’m currently juggling a lot of things lately, and; b) I’m a terribly slow reader.
So if you want an exciting, fast paced, and A+ story with A+ character development, I highly recommend Coin Heist!
